Butterfly check valve
A butterfly check valve is disclosed, which includes a housing defining an interior chamber having an inlet and an outlet; a control valve configured to control a flow between the inlet and the outlet, the control valve including a valve member movable to an open position in which a flow is permitted between the inlet and the outlet and a closed position in which the flow is blocked between the inlet and the outlet; and a check valve arranged downstream of the control valve, the check valve including a dome-shaped clapper configured to seal against an outer periphery of a clapper seat within the interior chamber of the housing in a reverse flow from the outlet to the inlet.
Combination control and check valve assembly for a wet piping system
A combination control and check valve assembly for a wet piping system includes a control valve in the form of a ball valve and a one-way check valve mounted within the flow pathway of the ball valve. A valve actuation assembly is mounted to the valve assembly to selectively rotate the ball valve between the open and closed positions thereof. The valve actuation assembly is mounted to a first side of the valve assembly and rotationally fixed to the ball, whereby rotation of the valve actuation assembly rotates the ball between the open and closed positions. A side opening is formed in a second side of the valve assembly that is angularly spaced from the first side. The side opening is positioned to align with the fluid flow pathway of the ball valve in the closed position thereof to provide access to the check valve.
